The Writer

Chapter 2

I arrived just on time. I parked the car and lead a way to the entrance of the school. I go to the information desk to get my schedules.

"Goodmorning". I greeted with a smile.

"Name?" A teacher asked me as if she was bored during the whole vacation.

"Sofia Andrez ma'am". I still tried to be polite and cheerful. Maybe i can share her goodvibes.

She typed my name, print out my schedules and still boringly handed it to me. Wow, what a great subject to start my day. Math!

"Thank you!"

I still got no cheerful response to the teacher so i choose to walk myself to my locker to lessen my books i carried inside my bag pack. Before i could walk to my first class, a familiar voice shouted running all the way towards me and give me a bear hug.

"Bff!! Happy first day of senior year! Aren't you going to hug me back?".

"How can i?! You squeeze me so much. I can't bre-aa-th ches".

"Ow! Im so sorry. I just can't contain the excitement of this day".

"Why?" I asked before i start walking again. She followed after me.

"Well i heard that senior year has a lot of exciting things to happen. Extra-curricular activities are very in to get a high average before semesters end. Plus there is a new school guy in here".

"Wa-wait? Extra-curricular activities? Like what? Are we qualified to enter the journalism club?".

She stopped me from walking and put my face inside her hands cupping it so hard.

"You're supposed to ask me who the new school guy is. How awful is your life that good grades are more interesting to you than meeting this so-called hot new guy in our school?"

I let myself free from her by tickling her side. That's her weakness.

"I-am-not-interested-in-that-so-called-hot-new-guy. P.E.R.I.O.D".

I stated one by one before walking again. Before we could reach the room of our first class, we already overheard the loud voices and giggles of girls from the room.

"What was that all about?"

"I don't know, let's find out"

When we reached the door, we search the whole four-cornered room and who is behind the giggles and gossips of everyone. Im surprised to see the guy i met at the park. I guess the hot new guy, the one my bestfriend is talking about is the same guy i recently met earlier at the park.

"Awww. Look at him. They're all right, he is hot and hottier in when you look even closer. C'mon fia, let's pray we couldnt melt like an ice if we go nearer to him". She whispered in my ear while getting ourselves a chair to sit. Only the available chairs are in front of his row.

"Oh no! Im not coming nearer to him. I don't want to be toasted".

She furiously look in me. "What? Why are you giving me those raised eyebrow?".

"So you're telling me that he is really hot?". She poked my side and give me a teasing grin.

"Ofcourse not! Im just giving you the possibility of what will happen to anyone who come nearer to a hot thing or a guy should i say".

"So you're really telling me he is hot?".

"Shut up ches! That's not what i meant". I turned a little bit red i know, and that's embarrasing.

She patted my shoulder while laughing between her words.

"Ha-ha alright ha-ha i know. Ha-ha i know fia".

Before i could make a come back words to Ches, the teacher already arrived so i don't have a choice but sit in the chair in front of him.

"Alright! Stop the drama, sit down everyone. Before we start, Mr. Dylan Mccol please introduce yourself in front of the class".

He stood up and stop for five seconds. Everyone is waiting including me. Girls are having side comments on their seats. Buzzing and buzzing with their seatmates.

"Quieeeet! Go on Mr. Mccol."

"Hi! Im Dylan Mccol. 17 years of age." He already walked off to his seat.

"That's it? Okey! So everyone get a piece of paper. We are going to have a pre-test. Let us see if your stocked up knowledge are not only about boys and boys but numbers and equations. Okey! Get one and pass. Get one and pass. Get one and pass. And start! You only have thirty minutes to finish it".

Everyone died from their sit looking seriously at the test paper while me thinking about how is he doing at the back of me. I have this feeling that he is looking at my back. So i look back brave enough to prove that i am right. But im wrong. When i look backwards, that's the time he looked into me. We are locked looking at each other for 5seconds. I was the one who initiates to look away. But my instinct pushes me to try and look one more time and he look back again. Until he asked me.

"What?! What's wrong with my face?"

"I-ah i-ah i don't know!" I stuttered. I look away so fast before he discover how red my face was. Fia! What is wrong with you! Why are you like that. I almost choke in embarrassment seeing Ches giving me a teasing look saying 'oh fia,you are so caught'.

I finish my test paper before the bell rang, indication that the first class is done. After i put the paper on the teacher's desk, i accidentally look on his way. And there he is looking at me curiously. I look down and went to my seat, gathered up my things and try to escape his questioning look in me.

"Hey fia! What's with the hurry?". My bestfriend asked.

"I just need to get my book for my next class. Ha-ha. For English".

"You looked pale". I know she is ready to laugh.

"I skipped breakfast. Bye!" And she did laugh.

To my embarrassment, i ran as fast as i can. I stopped running when i know im six rooms away from them. I lied to Ches that i will get my book to my locker. The truth is, i already have it in my hands. Did she find that out? That's why she laugh?  Ow fia! Why are you so nervous. You almost breakdown. I sit down on the last level of the stairs to rest. I still have five minutes before second class will start. I get my journal inside the bag and made a quick write.

I looked at my wristwatch.
7:45am math classroom
My bestfriend sucks!! Ill make sure she'll pay me back. Argh!

When Im done, i stood up and wipe the dirt from my butt for sitting in there. I put my journal inside the bag and when im about to leave, I just thought that i made a good escape plan, but i feel a hand touches my shoulder. I nervously looked back and saw that it was him.

"Hi! Im Dylan. Are you the girl i hitted with a ball in her backhead at the park early this morning?"
